Poly, ENM, or maybe he just can’t be arsed to crop her out, like a lot of other men do. Ever see those photos? It’s like dude surely you can take some solo pictures! 🤣

Oh and I LOVE the divorced men who use their wedding photos as their profile pictures :ROFLMAO: , you can see half the brides face and everything, one used their "cake cutting" photo with just an emoji over the brides face. I mean is that the only photos you have for goodness sake?!

What’s your take on matches who very quickly tell you ‘god you’re the first match I’ve had in ages’ - kinda gives me the ick like I’m barrel scrapings 😂

Or he’s trying to make out he’s really choosy and rarely swipes right. 🤣

Yep, first Bumble date last year told me I was his first match in ages and then told me he swiped on every woman just incase, it made me feel so special 🤨

I hate taking photos and generally hate photos of me but I really wonder about some of the photos that men use on their profiles. They really do themselves no favours and honestly half the time make themselves look so much worse

Evening gang I’m sat here with a little wine and ice cream catching up on all these posts.

spent this week working out and working, love island and football and not on apps 💪🏾😇

got the weirdest text not WhatsApp or Instagram from the 48 year old (who said he was 46 and his mum is ill etc) this week saying he hopes I’m ok, that I understand what he’s going through and to speak soon”. Anyway If you’ve got an iPhone, this is your reminder to block the number and WhatsApp I just did ig and WhatsApp 😞🚨 I also have no idea what guys mean by “speak soon”

but thank you next you weirdo.

So, I went out with my friend and her boyfriend last night. I won't lie, I was hoping to meet someone for a bit of a flirt as I could do with an ego boost. Anyway - long story short her boyfriend told me the reason why he thinks I'm single is because I'm such a ag and I'm too easy. So that was lovely to hear 🙃 God forbid a woman enjoys sex.

I can’t believe this was said to you! Don’t feel ashamed.The audacity has given me anger on your behalf. What did your friend say? He sounds like an absolute pri*k

@Woolmercardington I got so invested in those texts 🤣🤣🤣lol. Keep posting


Slightly off topic but as were multi National here anyone from Scotland?

I have a new match.
I'm not sure if I'm becoming a bit of an old fart here, but if I send 3 messages with questions in and I only get one sentence answers back without them even feigning interest and asking questions back, I shouldn't bother with any further messages?! I'm sick of feeling like I'm pulling teeth. :rolleyes:

Unmatch them, no point putting in effort if they're not

@realhousewivewannabe she was annoyed with him last night but she told me today not to overthink it and he was drunk etc

honestly this shocks me. If my (hypothetical) boyfriend ever spoke to one of my friends like that they’d be out the door. I have no interest in being around a man that calls any woman a ag, let alone a mate of mine, I would honestly struggle to maintain a close friendship with someone who thought that was acceptable.

F*** her and him too. Especially With everything you’ve been through recently!

@Thank(space)you How your friend can let her boyfriend call you a ag after what you’ve just been through is beyond me. That is the most insensitive and revolting comment someone could make to someone at a time like this. I hope you reevaluate your friendships with both of them.

Wow, who will I pick? The ice cream, the beer or the view from a plane window? #spoiltforchoice

eta: just noticed the ice cream says ‘Aimee’ in it. Is this some kind of secret code? Needless to say my name is not Aimee.
